I have a sweatshirt I wear around the house that has several different simple faces (line-drawn happy faces) on it. My kids are always asking, to each individual drawing, "What's your name, face?" We've given each face a name and personality. We have Francois, Mark, Salvador, Andy, Mona Lisa, Jan (pronounced "yawn"), etc. I never knew a shirt could provide so much entertainment.
This face is a drawing by my daughter (she's 3) and I absolutely love it! We rescued it from a giant piece of scribbled on and torn kraft paper. I don't know it's name. I'll have to ask. My daughter, not the face.
A friend of ours recently helped us animate the face to sing a bit of a song we'll be using in our almost-annual family music video. Should be fun to see! We're also thinking of transferring it onto some little t-shirts or onesies for the fam. Maybe I'll post on that later.
We obviously have another budding artist in the family!
ReplyDeleteI bet her name is Jess! Just look at all that ORANGE!!!
ReplyDeleteJust to be sure I wasn't biased, I asked Nathan if he thought the drawing was unusually good for a three-year old. He agreed.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! I'm just digging into the archives and I love this idea. I saw a necklace at Kohls.com that makes a custom pendant out of a kid's doodle. The drawing reminded me of that.
